Hello.
I'm using mod_auth and digest authorization.
Is there a way to disable access after some failed login attempts?
I.e. after the 5th attempt the client will be redirected to the 404 Not Found page & will receive it after each new request during one minute.
May this be done using Lua facilities?
P.S.: lighttpd 1.4.23, debian linux
you really want to log one minute of traffic? some hosts have hundreds of cons per second, good luck then.
i think lighty shouldn´t solve every small "problem", there´s enough important stuff left and we should concentrate on that.
